Thumbelina

Updated Thumbelina pictures. She's a tad over two years old now.

And I found one of her baby pictures!

The friend who took these pictures had a BALL with my inverts. This is a nerite.

Full-tank shot. Please ignore the floating wisteria; I'm having issues getting the new stuff to stay rooted.

"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

What a cutie! The tank looks great too, nice and busy.
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.
